This picture was quite famous at the time. I guess it is copyrighted, which is why you don’t see it much, anymore.

True. Any illness, cancer, heart disease, etc., comes from the enemy.

“But Borders became severely depressed and started smoking crack in the years after the attack,”

Not all cancer is not sent by Satan or Bin Laden or any one else. Bodies reaction to smoking crack is not good

Prayers for her family.

I have seen this photo before.

My first thought - when Usama bin Laden was killed, before his body was dumped in the Ocean, the US military brass and Obama administration, made sure his body was wrapped and washed according to Islamic practice, with an Imam present.

Bastards.

I remember seeing an emergency room physician from Lower Manhattan saying that on that morning he couldn’t tell the white patients from the black ones because everyone was covered with a deep layer of dust

Several images stand out in my mind (and probably always will). One was a black man that was covered in the ash.... he was in a suit. I just don’t remember this one.. though it is similar.

agree, they should have wrapped him in chains, and kicked his corpse off the side of the smallest tugboat in the navy.

treating these animals with respect gets us nothing.

IIRC, there was asbestos insulation on the steel beams in the core of the towers. Whoever breathed that dust should be on the lookout for associated problems.
